NEON 2018 Photo Recap

There were many reasons to laugh and have a great time at NEON 2018. Fundraising Auctioneer Laura Michalek, Spaceworks Manager Heather Joy, and Auction Emcee David Printz certainly had a great time.

The numbers are in! On Friday night, June 8th, 2018, our community came together for Spaceworks’ 3rd annual fundraiser NEON to celebrate local creativity and show support for Spaceworks programs and services. Although we raised over $43,000, we came just short of reaching our $50,000 goal. Could you help us reach $7,000 by the end of June?

#GoalToGlow

Your tax-deductible gift will help us create more opportunities for artists and entrepreneurs in Tacoma. If 200 Tacomans donated only $35 right now we would close the gap and smash our goal!

This massive print was created at the literary arts festival Wayzgoose using a steamroller. It was a part of a Live Auction package offering the winner a chance to drive the steamroller at Wayzgoose 2019. Displayed here by volunteer Jesse Pasquan.
